Viva La Vida - Taylor Swift (泰勒·斯威夫特)

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise

When I gave the word

Now in the morning I sleep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listen as the crowd would sing

Now the old king is dead

Long live the king

One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me

And I discovered

That my castles stand

Upon pillars of salt

And pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror

My sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

Once you go there was never

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in

Shattered windows

And the sound of drums

People couldn't believe

What I'd become

Revolutionaries wait

For my head on a silver plate

Just a puppet on a lonely string

Oh who would ever

Want to be king

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

I know Saint Peter

Won't call my name

Never an honest word

But that was

When I ruled the world

For some reason I can't explain

I know Saint Peter

Won't call my name

Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world
